Another exciting prospect is set to make his NHL debut with the Flyers, as Alex Bump is recalled from the Phantoms.
The NHL trade deadline has come and gone, but the Flyers aren’t done yet making tweaks to the look of their roster.
As of this morning, Alex Bump is on the Flyers’ roster, and an official announcement is expected before too long that they’ve recalled the winger from the Lehigh Valley Phantoms. He’s expected to make his NHL debut in short order.
Bump, 22, was drafted by the Flyers in the fifth round of the 2022 draft, and after taking a steady developmental route — by way of the USHL, and then ultimately the NCAA on the way to a National Championship with Western Michigan — he made his professional debut with the Phantoms at the end of the season last year, getting in a good bit of experience in the postseason, before getting rolling for a long regular season in the fall.
